Currently watching Another on Crunchyroll. Great show. P.A. Works never fails to impress me.

Within the last 365 days I went through Oreimo, Baccano, Madoka Magica, Fate/Zero, Canaan and Angel Beats. Tried to watch Barefoot Gen and quit after about 30 seconds of the blatant historical inaccuracies.

Of those, the only one I pirated was Madoka Magica. The "IT'S BEEN LICENSED AND IT'S COMING HERE!" announcement came when I had one episode left to go.

Fairy Tail - My favorite anime series right now. Also reading the manga.One Piece - Only about 8 episode done so far. 500+ still to go.Seitokai Yakuindomo - There's some funny moments, but it could be better.

I watched these in the past couple months:

A-Channel - Not bad, but nothing memorable.Astarotte's Toy - I wasn't expecting much, but it turned out to be really good.B Gata H Kei - Kinda disappointing. I was expecting it to be much better.Best Student Council - It was enjoyable in a goofy way.Boku wa Tomodachi ga Sukunai - Amusing but forgettable.Cat Planet Cuties - Disappointed. Didn't like it much.Chu-Bra - Average and forgettable.Fortune Arterial - Forgettable.Hyakko - One of my favorite anime shows.MM - Not that good. I hoped it would be better.Madoka Magica - Amazing. I'd buy the Blu-ray if it wasn't $120.Mayo Chiki - It was pretty good. Not bad, but not great.Nogizaka Haruka no Himitsu - I liked it. Above average but not great.Oreimo - Great show. One of my favorites from last year.Shugo Chara - Gave up after 8 episodes. Not my type of show.Squid Girl - Very funny. Really enjoyed this show.Usagi Drop - Excellent series. Will probably stick with me a long time.YuruYuri - Love this show. Watched it twice. Looking forward to Season 2.

I'm currently going through Fairy Tale, the blu releases, though I'm still in the first 10 episodes. My anime watching is very, very slow. Star Driver is next up, though I still have to finish up Code Geass R2 and Gundam OO season 2.

Most shocking to me is that I have no other open orders for anime. I have a ton for manga, but this must be the first time in over a decade where I didn't have some kind of disc on order at RightStuf. I've been tempted by Madoka Magica, but I'm still contemplating the investment. I have a gigantic backlog, so it's not like I won't have anything to watch.

I'll pick up Tiger and Bunny whenever Viz decides what they want to do with it. And Gundam Unicorn and Hellsing whenever they put out new volumes.

Also, this may be the only time I say this, but if you like Usagi Drop/Bunny Drop be happy with the anime and don't go read the manga.

Oh man. Right after I finished the series I went to check if there was the possibility of a 2nd season. I read the manga summary at Wikipedia. Felt like my soul had been raped. I'm just gonna try to erase that from my memory.

Another - A rather facinating series for me. Every once in a while it's nice to have series with dark/mysterious, bloody elements. It would be interesting to see this series on Blu-ray (via Sentai Filmworks).

BRAVE10 - It just feel like it has been done before and it just doesn't really stand out for me.

Chihayafuru - IMO, a very underrate series. It's sad to see the series end. I hope that a North American distributor will be able to license this sometime in the future.

Familiar of Zero F (Season 4) - The series really has gone downhill after the first season or so. With that said, the ending was somewhat satisfactory for me.

LASTEXILE - Fam, The Silver Wing- - I had low expectations for this series. I guess that expectation was still too high. Disjointed storyline with characters that don't seem to fit their roles. It was nowhere close to the original Last Exile series.

Natsume Yujin-cho Shi (Season 4) - The previous three seasons were great, this season was no different. I hope season 5 somehow materializes in the future. Now I'm looking forward to see how NIS America handles this license.

Just finished Gurren Lagann. It was great. Pretty much the anti-Evangellion. It's not really necessary but I think one's appreciation of it greatly increases if you've already sat through a healthy serving of giant robot/mecha anime.
